Postdoctoral Positions in Robot Learning and Soft, Musculoskeletal, and Biohybrid Robotics

The Soft Robotics Lab seeks postdoctoral researchers working on compliant robotic systems, biohybrid actuators, dexterous manipulation, robot learning or embodied-AI simulation. Researchers will develop and experimentally validate systems, publish findings and co-supervise students. The full-time Zurich appointment starts with a one-year contract, renewable annually. Applications are reviewed as they arrive until 30 November 2026; the start date is negotiable.

Completed relevant PhD, depth in a relevant robotics or bioengineering area, experimentally validated research, peer-reviewed publications and strong English communication.
